For two years, we have heard about the sales of the iPad, and how it is going to dominate the gaming industry. But can Apple's outdated technology beat the humble piece of paper?
In its first two years on the market, the iPad has sold approximately 60 million units worldwide. This sounds impressive at a glance, but pales in comparison to the average of 700 pounds of paper used per year by the average American. Even the most hardcore Apple fan uses barely a few pounds of products a year.
What is the reason for this gross difference in consumption? Perhaps it's because a sheet of paper costs less than 0.1% of an iPad. Perhaps it's because cheap 0 cent games on the paper, such as tic tac toe and Hangman, have a competitive edge on overly expensive $1 games like Angry Birds. Furthermore, paper has infinitely greater resolution and battery life, far more versitability, multitasking, and flexibility. Plus, pieces of paper double as toys, as they can be folded into cranes and planes.
I believe that over the next couple of years, Apple will go bankrupt, as Paper Giants such as Staples take over the games industry. Perhaps Apple can make some 3rd party software for the 8 1/2 X 11 inch piece. This would undoubtedly please the stockholders.
This chart shows something being bigger than something else, so the little thing must be domed!
Love and tolerate.
